Answer:

20 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of a rectangular deck is five times it's width if the decks perimeter is 24 feet what is the decks area

Step 1

We find the Length and Width of the deck

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2L + 2W

The length of a rectangular deck is five times it's width

W = Width

L = Length = 5W

P = 24 feet

Perimeter = 2(5W) + 2W

24 = 10W + 2W

24 = 12 W

W = 24/12

W = 2 feet

Solving for L

L = 5W

L = 5 × 2 feet

L = 10 feet

Step 2

We find the area of the deck

Area of the deck(Rectangle) = Length × Width

= 10 feet × 2 feet

= 20 square feet

What is the domain and range in a function?

larisa [96]

Answer:

Domain means all the numbers that the function passes on the x-axis. for example, when you have a straight line horizontally without stopping, your domain is ∞ since it passes every number on the x axis. The same applies to the y-axis, but now it's every number that passes the y-axis of up and down. A straight line going up and down

without stopping has a range of ∞

Step-by-step explanation:

law of cosines states that

for sides A B C and angle c opposite to side C,

$C = \sqrt{A^2 + B^2-2ABcos(c)} \\cos(c) = \frac{c^2-a^2-b^2}{-2ab}$
